⚙️ Key Features

• Nipple listed for eight applications across KAMD and KAD series engines
• 0.042 kg
• Supersedes 946082, catalogued earlier as a t-nipple
• Splits a flow path, so the hose bore has to match the barbs

🔌 Function

Joins hoses into a branch, splitting one flow into two while holding the connections tight against the pressure in the circuit.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Weeping or drips at one of the hose connections
• Hose ends found swollen, split or ballooned where they push on
• Barbs found corroded, eroded or scaled up
• Reduced flow in one branch as the bore silts or scales up
• Nipple found cracked at the junction

🛠️ Service Notes

• Renew the hose clips, and the hose ends themselves where they have hardened
• Match the hose bore to the barb - an oversize hose will not seal however hard the clip is pulled up
• Ordering against the old t-nipple number 946082 now brings this part
